Skillshare Reviews & Product Details

I don't really have anything positive to say. I had very negative experiences with the customer service of this company and I cannot recommend using their service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The content is shallow, often worse than what you can find on youtube for free. Not only that, they give a free trial then charge you credit card for a year ($99) without warning, and refuse to refund when complaints are made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are SO many different courses, with a variety of teachers. Each has video content, with actionable items (usually a project) for you to implement immediately what you learned. There is a class discussion board to interact and ask questions, as well as the ability to see other projects and get additional ideas. You can also save courses and create lists of courses so you can have a working list of courses to engage in for your interests. It also keeps track of the courses you are currently watching so you can jump right back in. There are a variety of lengths to the courses as well, so you can choose how intensely you want to dive into a course at any particular moment. You are also able to "follow" different instructors, and see immediately what other courses they offer. You are also given recommendations to similar courses of interst.

The only downside is that the mobile app doesn't allow you to see the resources. You must be on a computer to access these items. Also, on the mobile device you cannot make different lists, but it does appear as though you can create multiple lists of courses through the desktop version. One way to get around this is to open a browser on your mobile device to visit the desktop site, but this is not nearly as convenient as having everything accessible through the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the fact that Skillshare has so many opportunities to learn new skills and develop your current ones. There is literally something for everyone from how to draw to how to apply makeup and how to use marketing for social media or your business!

I highly recommend trying the 2-month free trial and I promise you'll fall in love! I didn't believe the hype until I tried it and from there I was hooked! At the time my trial was up I couldn't afford it so I didn't purchase it, but for the next 6 months, it was still on my mind so when I got the money of course I invested and am so glad I did!

The teachers' steps are always easy to follow and take notes on and the tips aren't generic. Let's say you look at 3 videos on how to start a blog. They might have the same underlying agenda, but you come away with 3 completely new and fresh ideas of how to approach the same thing. That makes it easy to figure out what kind of techniques will work best for you instead of high-level generic information that really doesn't help anybody. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I honestly have nothing I dislike so far. The process to reactivate my account was pretty easy with minor hiccups. The link to reset my password after reactivation didn't work, but they were able to go in and manually fix it and after that, I've had no trouble at all! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how easy it is to find a course of what you're looking for, and the ease of reading others' reviews. A lot of well informed instructors sharing their valuable insights, and they earn something for their work. I appreciate this platform so much! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are occasionally under qualified instructors, or classes that are not top notch, but those are few and far between. I do judge a course by it's cover imagery, but some of those courses with the not so great cover art are the most helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am so glad that my friend told me that this platform existed. I was looking for a way to improve my video and graphic design skills without investing a lot of money in the class. Really talented people from different industries have created content for this site, so you can learn everything from new cooking skills to how to process data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there was a way to rate the courses and see how highly rated they are, as some classes are amazing and others are more basic and not as interesting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part of skillshare is that you can select the place and time to start learning the courses they have. It's a big web of information where you can study and grow your skills, depending in what you're good, but there they have so many topics to choose, and you can have a free 2 weeks trial Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes you have to try a list of videos in order to see what you can use and what you don't need or don't want to watch. It's information from all the people, but you need to filter it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At this point nothing

They have no proper system in place for billing

but they have fun courses Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I joined skillshare premium and it has been so useful! However a few days ago I got billed $99 over 4 times in one day essentially cleaning my bank account out and my bank thinking it was fraud(Which essentially it was) closed my account due to suspicious activity. I mailed skillshare explaining my situation and a woman mailed me back and i quote "Thanks for reaching out! As requested, I've gone ahead and made sure your membership "

1 i didnt ask to cancel my account

2 you still owe me my money

I messaged them asking them what they would need from me to do a refund on the excess amount and have heard nothing back from them... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SkillShare is one of the great educational platform for learning which we ever seen in our life. It's learning process, experienced instructors and affordable pricing model to everyone. I love the user interface of website as well. If you practically think about the process of learning business. We also share video courses to our employees and they learned many topics by Skillshare like Html, GIFs Creation, Adobe Photoshop and many more softwares including programming skills they learn during their free timing. I'm very much impressed with SkillShare and I love to continue our future work with SkillShare. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They should add more payment methods like Bitcoin / Crypto payment. If they allow crypto payments then more people can join from different countries. They can be more educated within it. Otherwise there's nothing I don't like about the platform, in my opinion it's perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Skillshare is providing opportunities for online learning. This is the best way for online education to help me & all students. one of the best way to learn more & more skill by Skillshare. Skillshare has classes on all types of topics, but my favorites are the design ones. I also enjoy ... Here are some of the classes that I have liked the best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing bad in skillshare everything is perfect. Such as great one online platform to learn & explore those things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish I could tell you what I love best about their website, too bad they canceled my account after charging me for a one-year Premium Subscription and I didn't get to use their shitty platform too much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their customer experience.

It seems like only incompetent outsourced indians look after their customers and this hurts their trust a lot. No answer in more than 30 days and I've tried to contact them everywhere - Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, email - and no real human tried to contact me back.

If their customer experience had been a ship, it would have been Titanic. Total failure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I'm able to learn more about things I'm already doing as well as new information in fields I'm not as familiar with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have nothing I dislike about Skillshare; it's been very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love Skillshare for it's variety of classes they offer. You can learn anything from knitting, to cooking, writing, logo design, analytics, photography, and so on. The platform has thousands of classes on any topic you can think of. The classes are taught by business owners, freelancers, and people loving what they teach about which is a nice change when you compare it to classes at your school where some teachers seem like they don't really care about the topic they teach. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'd like to see the bad classes removed, but there are not too many of these. Most people make quite good classes. I'd say that most of them are even above average. You can't really go wrong for the money you pay. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the concept and have found a few classes I like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform seems to have streaming issues. Both the website and the Android app take forever to load and frequently stall. I've tried on several devices, so it's not a device or browser issue, and I can watch Netflix and YouTube with no issues or stall at all, so it isn't my internet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the wide variety of courses that are available in many different areas that support creatives in business. The fact that you can take courses on digitizing watercolor painting alongside how to structure your business is really handy! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be difficult to know what the course actually entails - the syllabus doesn't seem to be very detailed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the teachers who have put their experience/expertise in a specific subject into a video format. I also love how the lessons are broken up so you can jump back to rewatch a video for references or come back and complete the lesson later on. I also enjoyed how there were emails that showed recommended courses! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Being a student I was not a fan of the pricing of the product. It does cost $100 for the subscription up front, but I think it would be better to have a type of monthly subscription plan to help ease the financial burden of a student. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Whether you're using Skillshare as a platform to teach or as a learner, it is a easy to navigate and utilize tool. It offers a variety of classes that can be used in the classroom or to learn yourself. It also offers the ability for you to upload your own classes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be a little tricky to navigate all the classes that are offered. There could be a better set up for organizing/categorizing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Skillshare has done an amazing job providing a very wide variety of tech and non-tech centered courses. The quality and range of content is exactly what I was looking for. They also run very good marketing campaigns, allowing new users to use a one month free trial before subscribing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is no discount for students, and there is no structure that allows you to subscribe at different price points. If you don't want to pay $99 for the unlimited plan, there is no cheaper option (although they do offer some free abbreviated courses). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the price and many of the courses Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

More free courses should be available on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I though I was going to have access to high quality instructional videos, which they offer pretty good teases of but the actual content was below satisfactory. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They have predatory billing practices and have just stolen $100 for a service I did not request. They also are not responsive. At all. It really has left a bad taste in my mouth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love Skillshare because there are such a wide variety of lessons and videos to learn from and really helped me hone my skills. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It got a little pricey for me and unfortunately I had to stop using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is SUCH a wide array of skills and topics covered in some form or another. And the team does a great job of maintaining high-quality content from the instructors and their presentations. I also really like the class suggestions - I've found many that I'm very interested in simply because they've been suggested based on my interests. Awesome! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have not yet come across anything that I do not like yet. I guess I'd like to see more in-person classes/workshops in the Denver area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I liked that I could communicate with instructors though email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I heard that all of the instructors are not licensed, or even involved in their profession for a long period of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've enrolled in multiple classes on Skillshare and I've found the platform pretty easy to use and reliable. I was also able to communicate with the instructors via the platform, which is a plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't see a way to communicate with other students who have taken the same classes that I have. That would have been useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some interesting classes in a variety of different areas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I had a problematic charge dispute with the company. Fortunately I was given a full refund thanks to the customer service at SkillShare. Make sure you follow up with the company if you feel as though you were charged unfairly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the rating system. This helps me determine the usefulness of a video set. I also like how Skillshare is constantly expanding it's catalogue and categories of interest. It's definitely not just for artists -- this is for creative learners. I like the user-contributed project galleries because I find it inspiring to see what other people have done after taking a course. I also like how they have an app so that I can continue videos on the go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the courses are not well-vetted. That's why the reviews are helpful. Some of the courses do not have high-quality presenters or they are poorly made and edited. While I know Skillshare is trying to get more content, I do believe they should have some threshold for quality of courses. Although, there are PLENTY of courses that have excellent, interesting presenters with great quality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
